Origami Elsa designed by Origami_Kimiro, folded by me from an uncut square of 60 cm double tissue.

Wish my paper had better color contrast but am happy to share the first entirely new fold of the new year!

Fyodor/Nikolai/Sigma, domestic au, but they are painfully slavic and living their best lives, is something that can be so personal.

(this post took forever cause I essentially had to make it twice. I didn't look at what blog I originally posted this to the first time round. shoot me)

Doctor who fandom, I really need your help right now

I would really appreciate if you could tell me what kind of puns you can find in the series! And by puns I mean a play of words, the device that is difficult to translate

Pretty please 🙏✨

to go to a specialist and say "i feel like i'm dying" and have them say "yeah, these symptoms are serious even though you haven't been hospitalized for them" and then to have the specialist run a million tests before you even leave the building and then to have one of those tests come back with extremely definitive results confirming that you WERE right about feeling like you're dying and also that the doctor CAN help...... EVERY CHRONICALLY ILL PERSON'S DREEEEAAAM WHAT A FUCKING UNICORN OF AN EXPERIENCE THIS NEVER HAPPENS. just lived the most idealistic non-ethical-crimes version of an episode of house MD i am SO HAPPY

i really dont understand studying at all like genuinely i don't know what it is . i know about "taking notes" and "reading the textbook" and that's it . quizlet doesn't do shit for me because i don't know what to. do. with the cards. look at them ? am i supposed to just look at them . No one bothered teaching me actual skills bc i got good grades when i was 8 and now i am so hopelessly lost . why did no one think to teach me this for when stuff got harder than four plus three

saw you taking about your major earlier and i am really struggling with choosing what to study for my bachelor’s degree. i’m kinda stuck between many semi-similar subjects, and i think i would enjoy them all. i hate choices. was it a difficult decision for you? or did it just feel right in the moment?

lmao it's been [redacted] number of years and I still don't know if it was the right choice if that tells you anything!

Depending on your field of interest, I will say that a lot of the time, there's a lot of overlap between areas of study. As in, if you're going for a Bachelor of Arts, a lot of the skills you'll learn are transferable from one area to another, even if the subject matter isn't.

It was difficult in that I am a very indecisive person, and also a scaredy cat. Ultimately in university, I ended up picking psych because when I had done my previous diploma program, I really enjoyed my psych classes. And one of my good friends was also going into psych, so that seemed like an easy pick lol. And then after a year or two of being in my psych program, realized I didn't have the drive to go into practicing (at one point I considered sport psychology given my then-love of skating and sports in general) nor the grades to be perfectly honest. (I almost flunked out of my first year of university.) I had been doing a history minor at the time, because history had been one of my favourite subjects in high school, and then I kept taking so many history classes even as electives that I just ended up switching to a double major. (And then ended up doing a masters in something different loooooooool.)

So with the hindsight of wisdom, I would say: pick the route that you enjoy the most, because I enjoyed my history classes far more than my psych classes because I enjoyed the material so much more. (I loved psych in doses, but it ended up being too sciency for me the deeper I went into it, which I was terrible at, and also like, I don't need to learn about [redacted diagnoses] because I could just watch it play out in my family lmao. That being said a lot of my child dev classes ended up helping me immensely for coaching, so full circle!) The more you enjoy and engage with the material, the more motivated you are to keep going, and it makes the days seem far less long or stressful. And to come back around, I'm now in a job where my undergrad degree does not really apply content-wise, but it does for the skills I learned (critical thinking, analysis, writing, communicating complicated ideas into simpler terms, media literacy, etc.). And this is a job I took the long way around to get. The ones I had in between were even less relevant in some ways.

So I wouldn't base anything off my advice because like I said, I'm a follower and a coward in most things lol. I wish I'd been more forthright, I wish I'd stood my ground a little more, I wish I hadn't been so scared of trying new things. But, it ended up working out.

You got this bestie! Also: you can always change your major. You're not signing a blood oath. Do what feels right when you start and adapt when needed. Almost everyone I went to school with ended up changing majors!

god i hate therapy i pay so much just to hear questions that i'd ask myself. and i'd get a better answer asking myself.

Guys help needed ❤🥺

I'm writing my final paper on gender identity and it would be the biggest help if you could make a gender mosaic for me and just dm me a screenshot of it (US sample <3)

Basically it's a pattern of typical male and female attributes to show that brains don't know gender. Mine for example is mostly neutral with shades of blue and pink! It's a study by Daphna Joel who studied on that subject over decades

It's a trans friendly questionnaire another what you like and don't like. Takes five minutes. The questions are partially stereotypical but it would be the biggest help to have a lot of mosaics <333 thank you!!

(If you want, when you send me the mosic add on which continent, better country you were raised and if you were raised as a boy, girl or gender neutral)

Reblog would be lovely! Thank you!!!!

This is mine by the way :) i was raised as a girl in Germany but identity as a nonbinary demi guy!

Finally jumped into my Turkey paper so the worst (the utterly paralyzing anxiety before and then complete bewilderment as I read through 60 FUCKING PAGES OF NOTES trying to remember wtf I was even going to say) is over

Have literally just been going through the notes and putting stuff into a google doc as I go, waiting on structure to emerge as I do (and it's starting to come together now)

but since I took 60 FUCKING PAGES OF NOTES just getting through the first half already has me at 9.5 pages of writing for a paper that's supposed to be 25ish

(all of which, btw, explicitly ties the "New Turkey" agenda to Sevres Syndrome, Ottoman imperial nostalgia, and AKP attempting to turn the country into a one-party nation with Erdogan as its sultan-esque figurehead-- the outcome I proposed originally and which my professor told me wasn't "accurate," putting me into this backpedaling position in the first place. If it's not accurate, then he had better start buying stamps, because many authors in many journals for DECADES have been contributing their opinions to a large body of work that says is IS accurate, so he will have a lot people to set right.)

Also I already hated Erdogan but now he's personally responsible for me even having had to write this paper, so I'm gunning for him on a purely intimate scholarly hatred as well as international ethical/political one
